It breeds on the Chatham Islands and some of the islands south of New Zealand, as well as Gough and Tristan da Cunha in the Atlantic. The bird takes a mouth-ful of water and then forces the water through them, trapping the planktonic organisms which it eats. The lamellae are used by prions for filter-feeding. Not so broad-billed.

Last month we decided to head north to go camping and birding and top up the 2018 Year List. It is now very hot and dry inland and the temperature does not drop much at night, so you go to bed early and get up early like the animals and birds. We were woken by birds at 4am every day, so we were inside our tent early each night!

The Collegiate does define the word “ birder ” (“a person who birds”) and “ bird watcher ” (“a person who watches and identifies wild birds”). Of course, a “person who birds” begs the question of what “ bird ,” as a verb, means. That’s not all: bird words abound in the dictionary.

After spending Christmas Day birding around Broome and observing 92 species we spent the week making a mental note of what bird species were where. Every time the weather changes or you observe a bird you did not see on Christmas Day you wonder where it will be on New Year’s Day. Magpie Geese.
